What the Bible says about light and seed

The True Light "In him, (the Lord Jesus) was life, and that life was the light of men. The light shines in the darkness, but the darkness has not understood it. The true light that gives light to every man was coming into the world,…the world didn’t recognize him." John 1:4,9.

The Good Seed and the Weeds “The kingdom of heaven is like a man who sowed good seeds in his field. But while everyone was sleeping, his enemy came and sowed weeds among the wheat and went away.”Matthew 13:24,25.

Israel Overdue for Huge Earthquake Which Could Fulfill Prophecy of Messiah

An end of days scenario has suddenly appeared in Japan and Ecuador as seven major earthquakes
hit both coasts of the Pacific in 96 hours. Many seismologists are
convinced this is only the beginning of a global phenomenon, but rabbis
and people of faith recognize this as part of the Messianic process.

Over 500 people were killed on
Saturday when a 7.8-magnitude earthquake hit Ecuador. 1,700 people are
still missing, over 4,000 are injured, and thousands more are wandering
homeless. A 7.3-magnitude quake hit Japan’s southern island last
Thursday, while over 600 smaller tremors continued to shake the
survivors. The death toll in Japan stands at 47 killed, more than 1,000
injured, 8 missing, and over 100,000 left homeless.

Other less-deadly earthquakes were felt around the world. Many
scientists are convinced this recent epidemic earthquakes is just a
prelude to increased seismic activity around the globe in unprecedented
magnitudes. University of Colorado seismologist Roger Bilham told the Express,
“The current conditions might trigger at least four earthquakes greater
than 8.0 in magnitude. And if they delay, the strain accumulated during
the centuries provokes more catastrophic mega-earthquakes.”

Experts from India’s Ministry of
Home Affairs warned in January that yet another major quake, equal or
larger than the last disaster, can be expected in the region.Seismologists at Tokyo University
estimate there is a 98 percent chance that in the next 30 years Japan
will be hit by another major earthquake of catastrophic proportions.
2011’s 9.0-magnitude quake killed over 20,000 people, but its
destructive effects didn’t end at mere earth-shifting. Japan’s Fukushima
power plant was designed to withstand earthquakes, but a meltdown
occurred when the ensuing tsunami washed away generators powering the
emergency cooling, leaking large amounts of radioactive material into
the atmosphere.

This apocalyptic
scenario could easily be repeated with devastating results in many
developed countries, including the US. Nuclear power plants in
California, New York, Washington State, and Arkansas are situated near
major fault lines. Other plants in Maine, Pennsylvania, and Virginia
have raised concern of their earthquake survivability with the Nuclear
Regulatory Commission but were deemed within acceptable standards.Especially at risk is the Diablo
Canyon Nuclear Power Plant in California, which is situated directly on
the ocean, making it very vulnerable to tsunamis. It sits in an
earthquake red zone, in close vicinity to four active fault lines, one
lying only 2,000 feet away from the plant’s two nuclear reactors. S.
David Freeman, a former general manager of the Sacramento Municipal
Utility District, called the nuclear plant “a disaster waiting to happen.”In fact, tsunamis
are far more devastating than the earthquakes that trigger them. In
2004, the Band Aceh earthquake, barely felt on land, created a tsunami
in the Indian Ocean that killed about 250,000 people in Sumatra and
Indonesia.

A recent study
by seismologists at the University of California suggests that Southern
California is at greater risk of tsunamis than previously thought. A
7.0-magnitude earthquake in the Ventura Basin Fault could generate a
tsunami that would penetrate up to two kilometers inland in less than
half an hour, devastating a heavily populated area.

Rabbi Yitzchak Batzri, a noted Kabbalist from Jerusalem, spoke to Breaking Israel News
about how the wave of earthquakes fits into the Messianic process.
There is no doubt that the earthquakes have a divine origin, he said.“The potential of earthquakes is in
the world from the first days of creation, but the power that brings it
into existence is God’s will,” Rabbi Batzri said.

That will is triggered by human
action, he continued. “Our actions, in relation to God, affect his
decision to enact the forces of nature, especially in things having to
do with our rejecting sanctity.”“King David wrote, ‘Who looketh on
the earth, and it trembleth; He toucheth the mountains, and they smoke’
(Psalm 104:32) to describe what will happen in the End of Days before
the final redemption. There will be an earthquake in Israel, but it will
be beneficial, opening up the Temple Mount, bringing forth living waters, purifying the city to receive the Messiah.”The rabbi’s understanding of the prophecy supported by the opinions of many scientists. Israel sits on the Syria-African rift,
which runs along the Dead sea Valley. It passes through the area
thought to be the sites of Sodom and Gomorrah, and the city of Jericho,
which still stands today. The Biblical accounts of the destruction of
the twin cities of evil, and the later account of the falling walls of
Jericho, could very well be interpreted as divinely powered geologic
catastrophes.

Such events are not uncommon in the
region. Dr. Shmuel Marco, who has spent many years studying the timeline
of earthquakes in the region, told theJerusalem Post
that a major earthquake could be expected in the near future. Major
earthquakes were recorded in the Jordan Valley in the years 31 BCE, 363
CE, 749 CE and 1033 CE. “So roughly,” said Marco, “we are
talking about an interval of every 400 years. If we follow the patterns
of nature, a major quake should be expected any time because almost a
whole millennium has passed since the last strong earthquake.”

The rash of earthquakes has brought
about one of those rare scenarios in which scientific theory and
prophetic vision agree: earthquakes threaten our future. Man would be
wise to prepare, spiritually and physically, for what lies ahead.

The Joshua Tree - An original parable/allegory by this blogger.

Abraham planted a tamarisk tree in Beersheba, and there he called upon the name of the LORD, the Eternal God (Genesis 21:33). Here is old Abraham just planting a tree and living by his well. Why are we told this? It is symbolic of what is taking place in his heart and life. The tree immediately brings to mind Psalm 1, which says the man of God will be like a tree planted by rivers of living water, bringing forth its fruit in season. Here is a life that is fruitful, that is concerned about those immediately around and is pouring out blessing into their lives and hearts.

Testimony/Sermon of an Abortion Survivor

SUICIDE WATCH

I am sure most of you have known at some time in your life a person who wanted or attempted to end their life or succeeded in doing so. Personally, I have known a number of such people. I, myself had such an episode as an adolescent.

More and more I am reading and hearing about people young, old, male, female, gender and age don´t matter that add their lives to this problem of epidemic proportion in our society. Whatever the cause, we can all do something however small to save lives.

No need to have a psych. degree or to be licensed. An understanding heart, a listening ear is sometimes all that it takes to help weaker, more sensitive people overcome the hopelessness that drives fellow human beings to discard the gift of human life.

Please, take a few minutes to read below the few examples and testimonies about suicide. And please pass it on, if that´s all you feel inclined to do. Thank you.

HE INVITES SUICIDE JUMPERS FOR A CUP OF TEA

Don Ritchie moved to a house outside Sydney, Australia, for the clifftop view. But soon he was stopping suicides by inviting potential jumpers inside for a cup of tea.

Don Ritchie has been awarded a medal for bravery and an Order of Australia (the nation’s second highest honor) for averting hundreds of would-be suicides by approaching people and offering them a cup of tea. ‘I used to sell kitchen scales and bacon cutters,’ he says. Now, ‘I’m trying to sell people life.’
